So has anyone in the UK actually managed to buy one?
It seems they are being advertised but no one has any in stock.

I bought one from mobilefun about a month ago. Seems demand is just outstripping supply for now. Keep trying with mobilefun or expansys, and they'll eventually get some in stock. Or go on the thread in the accessories forum and buy it off one of the guys who are shipping it internationally for XDA members (at a premium of course).
Can I ask what sort of difference you get in battery life with the long life battery?

Sounds good as they are the same size as stock battery, but not sure if they live up to expectations?
Did you buy the battery????
If yes, can you tell us something about?
I' bought ones (different productor) from another buyer: after 2 days it was broken...
No, was waiting for some positive reviews of the battery...
you can`t trust these batteries and those ebay-sellers
I bought one B. with the same specs over here in Germany from an ebay-seller,
but found out that my 1340 mA/h has done the same job.
I would not trust them untill it is sold from a company that is reliable.
Has anyone used this or know of a better one?

I haven't used that particular battery as it was unavailable when I first got my Evo.I did puchase 2x1500mah baterries with a charger on Ebay direct from Hong Kong for 9.98 and they work just as well as the original.If anything,I think the spares run a tad bit cooler in general.

I get more life out of the original, but the aftermarket ones give quite a bit of life for $5 each.

I just got the batteries from same place in HK and they are really good, i did the same trick of recharging the cells and work perfect for me.
That red battery looks sweet. Might have to pick up a couple of those. The HTC Touch pro2 work just fine for me. I bought 4 batteries and 2 chargers for $20. 3 work fine. Also took about 1 month to get here but well worth it. No more worrying about the battery not lasting the whole day! (I'm a very aggressive user)

Ordered these same ones as well and am still waiting for them to come from China. 9.95$ shipped just can't be beat!
Lot'sa battery threads over in the Accessories forum. I just posted to the chinese ebay one like an hour ago.
Has anyone come across a UK or European supply for spare batteries?
I do a bit of geocaching so a spare battery always comes in handy.
I have not found any suppliers in the UK selling the battery yet. Even though Defy has a good battery life I still like to carry a spare battery with me as well.
I'm also after a spare battery, always useful to have.
I've raised a support request with Motorola UK asking them where / when they will be available. They should be available in their own online store at least.
I have a sneaking suspicion that the popularity of the DEFY might be taking them by surprise.
I did a little bit of research lastnight and the only official accessories is available for Motorola Defy is the battery door/cover going for $9.99.

It appears the battery door is sold by amazon (at checkout time) but when I visited amazon.com (US) I could not find it. Nonetheless, this is rather a good news that it is possible to replace the battery door in case it wears off or damaged.
doesn't any other motorola phone use the same battery?
the milestone 2 uses a 1540mah battery, can anyone confirm whether they are the same.

The Bravo uses the same battery but that is a US only device.
Defy Batteries availalble in UK
Aftermarket batteries have shown up now. Anyone got any experience with any of these companies?

I am thinking best to wait for a Moto official battery.
I would prefer an official Motorola one, but if nothing is forthcoming in the next couple of weeks I'll buy a 3rd party battery.
Northing back from my Motorola support request as of yet.
I have just ordered this one.
Lets see how it works.
Defy battery now available on the motorola site $40 just seen it.
Well, i just recieved to emails: One with the notification "payment recieved" and the other a little bit later from paypal, saying that my payment has been paid back - my order is canceled.
I dont think those shops got any Defy Batteries stock.
Well, got a couple of garbled emails back from Motorola - god I hope I don't need any real support with this phone
One email in broken English suggested to contact expansys, who don't yet list the BF5X (in fact, they misleadingly list the MILESTONE battery as an accessory for the DEFY, when in fact it is physically the wrong shape).
The next email that arrived a day later told me they would be in touch when they knew where and when they would be selling any batteries!
It's quite funny but I also pointed out that their sites for online registration don't list the DEFY in the models dropdown. So they directed me to another Moto UK site that doesn't list the DEFY!
I've found this place in the US that have them in stock, take PayPal and ship internationally:
http://www.thinkmotorolabravo.com/motorola-bravo-battery-oem-13558.html
So have ordered one as I can't be arsed waiting for Motorola UK to work out where they are and what they're doing.
Any news on actually avaible third party spare batterys?
13 USD for 2 batteries =) + Charger and Micro USB Cable

Not so much looking for a spare battery as much as an higher capacity battery. Any word on something like that?
Just been browsing ebay UK & found the following - 3.7v 1800mah. Can't post a link due to being a newbie but it's on ebay.co .uk & the item number is 200569859076.
Is very cheap in price so I'm wondering what it would be like in reality - too cheap to be any good?
hello guys. i have my nexus for 2 years now and i think it's time to replace the battery as i have no plans to upgrade in the next months.
so a few questions arises:
1. i read somewhere that if the battery is not used once in a while, it's life decreases. in that in mind does anybody knows what is the latest replacment battery production date for our phone?
2. do you know any eshop that sells original battery for our phone not from 2012? ebay sellers are not the most trustworthy bunch from my past experience so if you bought from a seller and is an original battery that wouls be great information.
3. if you have any 3d party batteries that you tested and are good feel free to suggest it.
thank you in advance

There is a battery thread in the accessories sub-forum.. I chose a battery based on peoples reports.
I see many batteries at Amazon for our N10:
https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=sr_pg_...keywords=nexus+10+battery+replacement&ie=UTF8
Are there any suggestions regarding if any one is better than the other?
The price range is off the chart from $20 to $60...
...any help deciding what to get?
Thanks!

I picked up this one just to see if it worked.

It was the same Samsung part as the original. Had it for a few months now, works well.
Did you get one yet? I got this one off ebay last year, no complaints. I think there are only two options this style with the yellow trim and another that claims to be genuine samsung (but is probably fake) with orange/brown trim.
Installed NewPower99 about two years ago: Still going strong
The original battery started dropping fast below 40% charge one day, so I decided to get a replacement before those would be hard to come by.
I am quite astonished that they are still around in large numbers.

No issue having it shipped to Germany, either, because amazon.de won't carry anything alike.
Which Battery?
I replaced my phone battery and now it's not working well. It has also effected the phone speed. So, try to get only original battery.
I bought this one on amazon for more than 1 and half years. Still works fine. KingSener 9000mAh 3.75V SP3496A8H Battery For Samsung Google Nexus 10
